Rajshahi Division

Administrative territorial entity Division of Bangladesh First-level administrative division

Rajshahi Division, Administrative division in northwestern Bangladesh.

Rajshahi Division is an administrative region in northwestern Bangladesh comprising several districts and smaller administrative subdivisions. Major rivers flow through the territory and form its natural boundaries with the Indian state of West Bengal.

The region was first organized as an administrative unit during the British colonial period and underwent significant territorial changes in recent decades. A northern section separated to create a new administrative division, reshaping the area's boundaries.

The region is home to different faith communities whose sacred buildings can be seen throughout the landscape. Walking through towns and villages, you notice mosques, temples, and churches standing as everyday reminders of the religious diversity that shapes daily life here.

Visit during the cooler months when the weather is most pleasant for exploring the region. Keep in mind that infrastructure outside main towns is basic, and major rivers swell during the rainy season, which can affect travel.

The region is known for growing specific mango varieties that thrive in the local climate and soil conditions. It also contains an ancient Buddhist monastery that has been recognized internationally as an important cultural site.
